Twitter Visualization Galaxy

Hello all, been working on a Twitter visualization (as if there weren't too many already!) galaxy looking spiral.

Inspired by the rss visualization screensaver on Mac OSX, this is a Twitter Data Visualization that displays tweets based on search queries. This particular search is responding to the phrase "Cultural Identity".

Definitely more tweaking can be done but nonetheless, does most of what I want it to do! I also used a text-to-speech application that speaks each time a Tweet is rendered to the foreground but I disabled it for this video.

Check out the video at: vimeo.com/9797232

Built with Processing + Java

looks great! I think there is a text wrap function native to processing so you don't get as many hyphenations and weird word splits.
